ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4416 Posts	Posted 07/07/2013 1:17 pm Although I'd not before encountered one of these in my travels, it's not all that surprising to hear that this smaller denomination was counterfeited; this, considering their extensive circulation as a staple currency, worldwide. Comparable size, I presume? What's the weight? Does it have a ring to it? Report this Post to the Staff
ambro51 Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 07/08/2013 11:41 am Have you determined Kleeberg attribution yet? Do you have the Baltimore C4 auction catalog from last year. Dave Wnuk sold his hoard, many are not imaged though. They are fascinating little coins and I'd imagine a fairly large percentage were counterfeit in circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
jerseyben Pillar of the Community United States 1211 Posts	Posted 07/08/2013 12:46 pm I have not made any Kleeberg attribution. I also do not have the C4 auction catalog. I know these things can be quite valuable but I have not yet determined what features of these particular coins make them valuable (or not valuable) for that matter. I do know that the crudely designed examples seem to always be worth some decent money. Report this Post to the Staff
